A much-loved part of the town’s weekly rhythm, Hay Saturday Market returns throughout 2026, bringing local produce, everyday essentials and independent traders to the centre of Hay-on-Wye.
Held on selected Saturdays across the year, the market offers a relaxed way to explore the town, support local businesses and enjoy the atmosphere that Hay is known for. Stalls typically include a mix of food, plants, crafts and practical items, making it as useful as it is enjoyable.
The market fits easily into a day out in town — ideal to combine with a visit to Hay’s independent bookshops, cafés and riverside walks, or as part of a longer stay exploring Bannau Brycheiniog (Brecon Beacons).
Free to attend and centrally located, Hay Saturday Market is suitable for all ages and a good option for visitors looking to experience something local and low-key during their stay.
